Time to mo this truth has taught, 'Tis truth tnat's worth revealing, If advico you would convey, There's a time we should convey it; If we're but a word to say, There's a time iu which to say it. Oft unknowiDgly the tongue Touchos on a cord so aching, That a word, or accentwrong, Pains ihe heart almost to breaking. Many a tear of wounded pride, Many a fault of human blindness, Ens been soothed or turned aside, By a quiet voice of kindness. Many a beauteous flower decays Though we tend it e'er so much, Something sec.et in it preys, Which no human aid can touch! SoinmaDy a lovely breast, Like some canker grief concealed. That if touched is more opprest; Left unto itself is hcaledl Time to me Hub truth has taught, 'Tis a truth that's worth revealing; More ofl'cnd from want of thought, Than f"om any want of feeling. The Oldest Bible on the Continent. A Book over Nine Hundred Tears Old. The artiolos which havo lately appeared from time to time in the Free Press in regard to old Bibles, hivo had the effect to bring to our notice one of the rarest and most valuable specimens of biblical literature in the world. This is a volume of six hundred pages, containing the whole Biblo in Latin language It belongs to the Rev. Dr. Duflleld, of this city. Tho book is made entirely of vellum, and the printing is all done by band with a pen and ink. Every letter is perfect in its shape, and cannot be distinguished by any imperfections in form, from the printed letters of the pres ent day. The shape of the letter is of course different from those now in use, but in no other respect cau they be distinguished from printed matter. The immense amount of labor may be conceived from the fact that there are two columns on oach page, each of which lacks only about six letters of being as wide as the columns of this paper. Tbay will average sixty lines to the column. The columns numbering 1200, we have about 72,000 lines in the whole book. .Nothing short of a lifetime could accomplish such a work. . 1b date ofiltt boot is A. D. 030 -.-It was consequently made 560 years before printing was invented, and is )za years old. There is probably nothing on this continent in the shape of a book equal to it in age. Th vel lum upon which it is printed is ol tho tincst kind and is mado ot the skin of young lambs. and kids, dressed and rubbed with pniuice stone until it is very thin. It is somewhat thicker than common paper, being a medium between that and tho drawing paper now in use. The tine veins in tne sum are distinctly visible in many dlaccs. A pencil mark was drawn by the operator to guide the construction of each line. Many pagos have these lines visible on the whole surface, no effort having been made to rub them out. Two lines running up and down divide the columns with mathematical accuracy. At the beginning of each chaptor highly colored omamontal Iotters are placed. These are tho only marks of the division of chapters. Thore aro no subdivis ions into verses, the chapters running in one paragraph to the end and no descriptive headings.This invaluable relic was presented to Dr. Duflleld by Lewis Cass, Jr., our Minister Resident at Rome. Uo procured it from a Greek monk, who brought it from the Greek convent of St. Catharino, at the foot of Mount Sinai. Mr. Cass befriended this monk, who was in trouble ; and ho, in return, presented him with tho volume which we have described. According to his story it is tho work of one of the ancient monk scribes in the convent above named. When it became known that Mr. Cass was parting with it and that it was going out of the country, the round sum of $3,000 was oflbrcd him for it by the monks of Rome. This was of course refused, for tho pleasure of placing so inestimable a relic in tho hands of one who can appreciate its valuo so woll as our learned divine, Dr. Duflleld. At the time of the late firo in the Doctor's house, this book was thrown into tho streot among othors, and came vory near being lost. It was picked up on the sidewalk by one who recognized it as one of Dr. DufhV.d's most valuable rolics, and preserved it. Detroit Fret Press. Christian Progress. Speaking in aprayer-meeting, in May, 1858, of the progress of Christian life, Henry Ward Beechcr, taking a sprig of apple blossoms which somo one bad that morning brought from the country, said: This cluster of apple-buds and blossoms came this morning to show us what God is doing in the country. This little pink bud, just out , and with its leaves yet closely folded, is like one just beginning to live a Christian lifo. It is all undeveloped; it knows not yet what is within itself; but yet it is a fair bud, and quite good enough for a beginning. And here is one where the petals are just parted. Tho color has deepened upon their edges, and they have grown purer within. Now the Christian has made some attainment. , Here is one whose loaves are half open. Its color is diffused in exquisite veins, and its fragrance is becoming apparent. This must be at least a two years old Christian. And here are the full blossomed flowers, liko' tho fathers and mothers in Israel, wide open to all the nourishment of sun and dow, and exhaling sweetest odor on the air. The petals will fall, but, though they know it not, thore lies modestly covered beneath them, the fruit which is yet to swell and grow j and to the Christian who is thus far developed and waiting for another sphere, somo fruit will follow the perishing (lower. " Itdoth not yet appear what we shall be." 03" Children often reason aad philosophize far beyond their ago. Witness the following litilo squib: A little boy on waking in the morning was introduced to a new oomorin the shape of a baby sister. After glancing first at the baby and then at its sick mother, be said "Pa, I should think you should have known better than to bring this baby here whon mother was so sick and unable to take care of it." Indianapolis. Aug. 20. Hon. David Kil-goro was yesterday renominated for Congress by tho Republicans of tho Fifth District. A Successful Merchant I am a Citv merchant, havinir ftnmmnnrnil , a my career as an odvonturer from tho (arm, on a salary oi au per year, ana Having passed through halfa lifetime of incessant toil to roach the point whore dopondonce ceases and " dinner ahoad " begins. I filled a clerkship in several first class merchant houses, and was associated with a vory considerable number ol sabsmon, accountants, and clorks genorally. Nearly thirty years have passed since my city bicmnmp uegan, aim uio retrospect nas uevol-opod the following results : All mercantile houses hv whom Twna am. ployed have since failed-one, after an emi- uunuy oreaitauio career ot mteon years, was carried into a hopeless bankruptcy by outsde speculation : and another, after thirtv.ftvn years of unbounded succoss and credit, was a iow montns since in incxtricaulo uimculties the result of a single dash of tho pen and has forever closed its mercantile existence. Of nil tho clerks with whom I havo been associated not ono has achieved permanont success equal to the valuo of a well-Rtnckerl hnnrlrnil.nxra farm: while from thn mnat. hrillinnt nf thni number, the penitentiary, the hospital, and the ui uuiiuru gravo uavo ciaimou ineir victims.

The Best Scholar. TV" In every school there is one who is called the best scholar. ' Teachers and pupils hare no difficulty in docidingwho is entitled to this honorable distinction; and when we once heard tho pupils of a school exclaim, as a bright-eyed boy entored tho room, "Here comes Frank; he is the best boy in the school," we thought, "what a good introduction to a new teacher!" After becoming acquainted with the scholars. we found that they had told the truth. Frank was the best boy in the school, and will no doubt become one of the best mon m the city. Think of it, boys: "The host boy in school." Who would not be proud of such a title? It is worth more than a million of dollars. But, perhaps, some scholars will say, "We can't all be the best." This is true; but you have a right to try, and. the one who will try the hardest will succeed, for there is power in that littlo word try. Frank could not be the bost boy in school if be did not try. If you cannot be the best, be careful and do not be the worst, Lvery school has one boy who is worse than any other scholar. We pity him; we pity his parents, his brothers and sisters. What a disgraceful title "The worst boy in school." He will no doubt become one of the worst men in the community. Letevory boy who reads this resolve to be "the best boy in school." Youth't Friend. A Tragedy at Knightstown, Ind. The Indiana Truo Republican, of the 9th inst., says: Tho citizens of the quiet village of Knights town wore thrown into the most intense ex citement on Friday evening, by the discovery mat iiuss Ann itagan, aaugutor oi a respectable widow lady of that place, had been most foully murdered. On Tuesday evening the deceased was taken ill, and continued to grow worse rapidly until Friday, when she died whilo in severe convulsions. On Saturday morning a post mortem examination was held, and it was as certained that an abortion bad been produced upon the body of tho young girl, by mechanical means. This sad occurrence is not without its mor al. The murdered girl will rest in hor dishonored gravo, the poor old broken-hearted mother will bend under the great weight of the sorrow that has been thus cruelly thrust upon her aged heart, until she sinks into the grave; but the seducer who will require this blood at his hands? Who will meet him with a less friendly grasp? What voune la dy will decline "the honor" of "his company 1" What mother will forbid her daughters to associate with him? What "circle" will refuse him admission because of the stain of outraged innocence aud murdered womanhood upon his hands? And yet this is society; the society our daughters, sisters and wives move in. Since the perpetration of this dark act. we have seon the principal actor in it, In a company of respectable mon, laughing gaily and talking lightly. This was the day after her burial, and there was no shrinking back among those men, as though the plague was among them. And why should they shrink Her Uood is upon bis hands; but then you know his fine kid gloves will bide all that. Emancipation in Missiouri, A Buchanan letter writer in Missouri says: "A majority of the Americans voting their ticket are pro-slavery, and emancipation even in St. Louis is as dead as a mackoral. lis advocates in Missouri are as poor as mice upon an empty shelf. Never was there a great party more triumphant than the pro-slavery party has been in this August election. It is well well for the State, for its future good, and doubly well tor the necro. The Ameri. can system of slavery of the black race is one or untold benevoienoe, and its good results will never be known until face to face we shall hear from the great Divine Rulor what purposes ofmorey he had to the Ethiopian race in suffering their enslavement In thiscountry." A Kiss at the door.' 0 The clock struck ten, I aeiznd my hat ' And bado good night to- all, Except the lasi I courted, who Came with me through the hall. ,i She stood within the portal, : ; , And I gazed upoD her charms. And ohl I longed that momeut To clasp her io my arms. She spoke about the moon and stars. How clear aud bright they shone I said I thought the crops would fail, Uuless we had raiu soon. Then I edged a little closer, . i Put my arms around her waist, And gazed upon thoil lips . . . . , I longed so much to tasto. Said I, "my deareatSusy, I'll never rest contented If I leave to-night without a kiss, I'll surely grow demented." Then up she turned her rosy mouti, 1 And everything waa handy. Quick from her lips I seized a kiss- Oh, Yankee Doodle Danyl Then off for home I started, i ' ' I could no longer stay, With light heart and britches thw, .. I whistled all the way.J Hence, learn this truth, each bashful youth Who seeks for wedded bliss, No lass will love until you move ' Her feelings with a kim. For the Republican. Plircnokcsmean Exhibition. Mr. Cochrak: The Anniversary celebra tion of the 1'hrenoJiMinem Society of Mill wood Academy, took place Aug. 20th, 1858, and a most delightful occasion of rejoicing it was a day ever to be remembered, by those who participated in its festivities, and never to be forgotten by the writer. After a pleasant ride of 12 miles from your city, we arrived at Millwood, and our first impression, on behold- ing the dilapidated, wicked looking dwellings : of this ancient village, were decidedly unfavor able. But when, at the sound of "the pierc- ing fife and the spirit stirring drum," the peo-ple came flecking from all quarters, stalwart lads, and buxom lassies, in numbers not much less than one thousand, we were compelled to change our mind, and to the enquiry, "can any . good thing come out of this KazarethJ' we could respond, "come and see." The procession, marshalled by Messrs. J. L. Daymade andl(oya.l. Kol$neon,. and accompanied with, martial music, with two splendid national flags, on one of whioh was written, rhrenokos mtan Society, made an imposing and attractive ' appearance. The preparations in the grove were suitable, on the bank of the Kokosiog, and under the shade of the spreading oak, maple, walnut, linn, butternut, mulberry and ironwood, we met in God's own Temple, and ' the Iter. Jacob Hammond addressed the throne of grace, in an appropriate and impressive prayer. Then was distributed the fol, lowing programme, which was carried out to the entire satisfaction of the large and attentive audience. ' ' ORDER OF EXERCISES. ' "MENS HOMINEM PAC1T." MUSIC.

Cummins, and added much to the interest. When allao-quitted themselves so well, it would be in- viddious to discriminate indeed there is no such word as fail, in the vocabulary of theso ' rnrenokosmeans, and the world will hear from them again, or I am no true prophet. The Rev. John Burns, to whom the society and Millwood Academy owes its existence the able and worthy Principal, received a large quarto edition of Webstor's Unabridged Dictionary, as a alight token of regard, from the Society, presented by J. L. Daymude. to which he appropriately replied. The intermission was passed in partaking ef the provisions amply furnished for the ocoaslon. The rhranokosmean society, originated in 1853. with 11 mombers, and has enrolled on its list. of both sexes, 118 members. Esto Perpttm. Long may the Rev. J. Burns live to see the fruits of his unceasing and unwearied toil for its benefit. J.L.R. ' Just as well to doit a Harry.' Why, you see, when mv mancarao a court. in' me. I hadn't the least thought of what be was after not I. Jobie came to our house one night after dark, and rapped at the door, I opened it, and sure enough there stood Jobie right before my face and eyes. "Com id,- hi i, -na uko a cneer." "iNo, Lizzie,' set be, "I've come on an arrant and I always j do my arrants fust. "But you had hotter come in and take a cheer.

Why, ; I was skeer'd and sed, "if you come on tbla courtin' business, come in; I must think on't a nine." "Ho, i ean't till I know. Tbet'a my arrant an' I can't sit down till my arrant'! done." I should like to think on't a day or two. "No you need'nt Liixie." "Well, Jobie, if I must. I mast o here' to yon then." So Mr. W came in.

Time to mo this truth has taught, 'Tis truth tnat's worth revealing, If advico you would convey, There's a time we should convey it; If we're but a word to say, There's a time iu which to say it. Oft unknowiDgly the tongue Touchos on a cord so aching, That a word, or accentwrong, Pains ihe heart almost to breaking. Many a tear of wounded pride, Many a fault of human blindness, Ens been soothed or turned aside, By a quiet voice of kindness.

The Oldest Bible on the Continent. A Book over Nine Hundred Tears Old. The artiolos which havo lately appeared from time to time in the Free Press in regard to old Bibles, hivo had the effect to bring to our notice one of the rarest and most valuable specimens of biblical literature in the world. This is a volume of six hundred pages, containing the whole Biblo in Latin language It belongs to the Rev. Dr. Duflleld, of this city. Tho book is made entirely of vellum, and the printing is all done by band with a pen and ink. Every letter is perfect in its shape, and cannot be distinguished by any imperfections in form, from the printed letters of the pres ent day. The shape of the letter is of course different from those now in use, but in no other respect cau they be distinguished from printed matter. The immense amount of labor may be conceived from the fact that there are two columns on oach page, each of which lacks only about six letters of being as wide as the columns of this paper. Tbay will average sixty lines to the column. The columns numbering 1200, we have about 72,000 lines in the whole book. .Nothing short of a lifetime could accomplish such a work. . 1b date ofiltt boot is A. D. 030 -.-It was consequently made 560 years before printing was invented, and is )za years old. There is probably nothing on this continent in the shape of a book equal to it in age. Th vel lum upon which it is printed is ol tho tincst kind and is mado ot the skin of young lambs. and kids, dressed and rubbed with pniuice stone until it is very thin. It is somewhat thicker than common paper, being a medium between that and tho drawing paper now in use. The tine veins in tne sum are distinctly visible in many dlaccs. A pencil mark was drawn by the operator to guide the construction of each line. Many pagos have these lines visible on the whole surface, no effort having been made to rub them out. Two lines running up and down divide the columns with mathematical accuracy. At the beginning of each chaptor highly colored omamontal Iotters are placed. These are tho only marks of the division of chapters. Thore aro no subdivis ions into verses, the chapters running in one paragraph to the end and no descriptive headings.This invaluable relic was presented to Dr. Duflleld by Lewis Cass, Jr., our Minister Resident at Rome. Uo procured it from a Greek monk, who brought it from the Greek convent of St. Catharino, at the foot of Mount Sinai. Mr. Cass befriended this monk, who was in trouble ; and ho, in return, presented him with tho volume which we have described. According to his story it is tho work of one of the ancient monk scribes in the convent above named. When it became known that Mr. Cass was parting with it and that it was going out of the country, the round sum of $3,000 was oflbrcd him for it by the monks of Rome. This was of course refused, for tho pleasure of placing so inestimable a relic in tho hands of one who can appreciate its valuo so woll as our learned divine, Dr. Duflleld. At the time of the late firo in the Doctor's house, this book was thrown into tho streot among othors, and came vory near being lost. It was picked up on the sidewalk by one who recognized it as one of Dr. DufhV.d's most valuable rolics, and preserved it. Detroit Fret Press. Christian Progress. Speaking in aprayer-meeting, in May, 1858, of the progress of Christian life, Henry Ward Beechcr, taking a sprig of apple blossoms which somo one bad that morning brought from the country, said: This cluster of apple-buds and blossoms came this morning to show us what God is doing in the country. This little pink bud, just out , and with its leaves yet closely folded, is like one just beginning to live a Christian lifo. It is all undeveloped; it knows not yet what is within itself; but yet it is a fair bud, and quite good enough for a beginning. And here is one where the petals are just parted. Tho color has deepened upon their edges, and they have grown purer within. Now the Christian has made some attainment. , Here is one whose loaves are half open. Its color is diffused in exquisite veins, and its fragrance is becoming apparent. This must be at least a two years old Christian. And here are the full blossomed flowers, liko' tho fathers and mothers in Israel, wide open to all the nourishment of sun and dow, and exhaling sweetest odor on the air. The petals will fall, but, though they know it not, thore lies modestly covered beneath them, the fruit which is yet to swell and grow j and to the Christian who is thus far developed and waiting for another sphere, somo fruit will follow the perishing (lower.

Witness the following litilo squib: A little boy on waking in the morning was introduced to a new oomorin the shape of a baby sister. After glancing first at the baby and then at its sick mother, be said "Pa, I should think you should have known better than to bring this baby here whon mother was so sick and unable to take care of it."

The Best Scholar. TV" In every school there is one who is called the best scholar. ' Teachers and pupils hare no difficulty in docidingwho is entitled to this honorable distinction; and when we once heard tho pupils of a school exclaim, as a bright-eyed boy entored tho room, "Here comes Frank; he is the best boy in the school," we thought, "what a good introduction to a new teacher!" After becoming acquainted with the scholars. we found that they had told the truth. Frank was the best boy in the school, and will no doubt become one of the best mon m the city. Think of it, boys: "The host boy in school." Who would not be proud of such a title? It is worth more than a million of dollars. But, perhaps, some scholars will say, "We can't all be the best." This is true; but you have a right to try, and. the one who will try the hardest will succeed, for there is power in that littlo word try. Frank could not be the bost boy in school if be did not try. If you cannot be the best, be careful and do not be the worst, Lvery school has one boy who is worse than any other scholar. We pity him; we pity his parents, his brothers and sisters. What a disgraceful title "The worst boy in school." He will no doubt become one of the worst men in the community. Letevory boy who reads this resolve to be "the best boy in school." Youth't Friend. A Tragedy at Knightstown, Ind. The Indiana Truo Republican, of the 9th inst., says: Tho citizens of the quiet village of Knights town wore thrown into the most intense ex citement on Friday evening, by the discovery mat iiuss Ann itagan, aaugutor oi a respectable widow lady of that place, had been most foully murdered. On Tuesday evening the deceased was taken ill, and continued to grow worse rapidly until Friday, when she died whilo in severe convulsions. On Saturday morning a post mortem examination was held, and it was as certained that an abortion bad been produced upon the body of tho young girl, by mechanical means. This sad occurrence is not without its mor al. The murdered girl will rest in hor dishonored gravo, the poor old broken-hearted mother will bend under the great weight of the sorrow that has been thus cruelly thrust upon her aged heart, until she sinks into the grave; but the seducer who will require this blood at his hands? Who will meet him with a less friendly grasp? What voune la dy will decline "the honor" of "his company 1" What mother will forbid her daughters to associate with him? What "circle" will refuse him admission because of the stain of outraged innocence aud murdered womanhood upon his hands? And yet this is society; the society our daughters, sisters and wives move in. Since the perpetration of this dark act. we have seon the principal actor in it, In a company of respectable mon, laughing gaily and talking lightly. This was the day after her burial, and there was no shrinking back among those men, as though the plague was among them. And why should they shrink Her Uood is upon bis hands; but then you know his fine kid gloves will bide all that. Emancipation in Missiouri, A Buchanan letter writer in Missouri says: "A majority of the Americans voting their ticket are pro-slavery, and emancipation even in St. Louis is as dead as a mackoral. lis advocates in Missouri are as poor as mice upon an empty shelf. Never was there a great party more triumphant than the pro-slavery party has been in this August election. It is well well for the State, for its future good, and doubly well tor the necro. The Ameri. can system of slavery of the black race is one or untold benevoienoe, and its good results will never be known until face to face we shall hear from the great Divine Rulor what purposes ofmorey he had to the Ethiopian race in suffering their enslavement In thiscountry."

Plircnokcsmean Exhibition. Mr. Cochrak: The Anniversary celebra tion of the 1'hrenoJiMinem Society of Mill wood Academy, took place Aug. 20th, 1858, and a most delightful occasion of rejoicing it was a day ever to be remembered, by those who participated in its festivities, and never to be forgotten by the writer. After a pleasant ride of 12 miles from your city, we arrived at Millwood, and our first impression, on behold- ing the dilapidated, wicked looking dwellings : of this ancient village, were decidedly unfavor able. But when, at the sound of "the pierc- ing fife and the spirit stirring drum," the peo-ple came flecking from all quarters, stalwart lads, and buxom lassies, in numbers not much less than one thousand, we were compelled to change our mind, and to the enquiry, "can any . good thing come out of this KazarethJ' we could respond, "come and see." The procession, marshalled by Messrs. J. L. Daymade andl(oya.l. Kol$neon,. and accompanied with, martial music, with two splendid national flags, on one of whioh was written, rhrenokos mtan Society, made an imposing and attractive ' appearance. The preparations in the grove were suitable, on the bank of the Kokosiog, and under the shade of the spreading oak, maple, walnut, linn, butternut, mulberry and ironwood, we met in God's own Temple, and ' the Iter. Jacob Hammond addressed the throne of grace, in an appropriate and impressive prayer. Then was distributed the fol, lowing programme, which was carried out to the entire satisfaction of the large and attentive audience. ' ' ORDER OF EXERCISES. ' "MENS HOMINEM PAC1T." MUSIC.

The Rev. John Burns, to whom the society and Millwood Academy owes its existence the able and worthy Principal, received a large quarto edition of Webstor's Unabridged Dictionary, as a alight token of regard, from the Society, presented by J. L. Daymude. to which he appropriately replied. The intermission was passed in partaking ef the provisions amply furnished for the ocoaslon.
